Recommended

I highly recommend Chet Weinbaum to anyone going through a divorce. Chet Weinbaum and his secretary Brandy both worked diligently throughout my divorce and they did an amazing job. After almost giving up, I had given one last chance to defend myself by hiring Mr Weinbaum and I thank God I did. Mr Wei...nbaum did his thing at trial and he far exceeded my expectations. You will be in good hands with him and his team.

Great Attorney!

Chet Weinbaum is a great attorney to work with, he is very knowledgeable, professional and reliable when it comes down to the court system. He responds to all my emails and phone calls and keeps me informed. I highly recommend Mr. Weinbaum to anyone who needs a great attorney! Thank you

Thankful

Mr. Weinbaum resolved an ongoing issue with my ex-husband/divorce with professionalism and his knowledge of the law. He listened to my concerns and tried to work with my ex prior to going back in the courtroom. In the end, Mr. Weinbaum presented a case to the judge with all the facts. I couldn't b...e happier with outcome! True closure!

Divorce

Mr. Weinbaum handled my case several years ago, after 1 1/2 years in court he won me my case. Long story short he could have billed me for many unnecessary hours as my ex's attorney did to him. In the end I am grateful for the way he handled my case.

Hire someone else

I hired Chet in April for a motion for contempt/enforcement. 8 months later after finally reaching days before a hearing I get notice that the hearing was stricken by the judge. The reason it happened was that Chet never filed a proposed order for the hearing. How do I know that? The cancellation of ...hearing described WHY it was canceled and included that Chet received a reminder email that it would be necessary in order for the hearing to proceed. Additionally, I’ve had to send multiple emails and make multiple calls to remind the office to scheduled previously canceled hearing, sometimes waiting an entire month! I’ve had to chase down this office to pursue subpoenas. & after almost an entire year of retaining Chet, I have gotten NO hearing, no forward movement. I spent over $2,000 and he refuses to refund me. I’ve had to terminate him and walk away with an over $2,000 loss. I would NOT recommend this office. He is not passionate about his work. He is not diligent and organized.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
